Default What were you doing??

What were you doing when you heard the news? I was in high school--10th grade-- and we found out the news right after it happened (About 9:00 AM PST)
Everybody was in shock. They let the school out, everybody rushed to thenearest tv which was in a little grocery store near the school. There must have been 50 people standing in front of that little black and white TV trying to follow what was going on. The wholle community came together to grieve--JFK was very popular in my town
It had the impact of 911--things just stopped for a few days

RIP Johnny--much of what you wanted came to be and much of what you wanted came to naught but might have beens. Such is history

James
